Downtown Scottsdale is among the most vibrant and unique urban centers in the American Southwest.

It provides a mix of specialty retail, art galleries, dining to suit every taste, legendary nightlife and public art and cultural attractions with broad appeal. It is also home to one of the most successful shopping centers in the southwest – Scottsdale Fashion Square.

Scottsdale’s Downtown is also known for hosting lively events throughout the year such as farmers and artisan markets, art walks, festivals, parades, concerts and block parties.

But Downtown is more than a visitor destination. It’s also the city’s second largest employment center and a budding hub for technology and health care companies like Yelp, Weebly, Zenefits, McKesson Pharmaceuticals, ZIVELO, ZocDoc, Digital Air Strike and ReplyBuy.

This employment hub has brought an increased demand for residential projects, so people can live near their jobs. Downtown Scottsdale provides a sustainable live, work and play lifestyle for residents within a vital urban environment.
